Yes, and it also says "A David Lynch Film", and mentions Al Pacino.Definitely a forgery.Marcus

I read a description of the Oliver Stone film poster. They did make one for the investors. It had a red banner stuck into the earth or something, with the royal lion on it (although the Macedonian royal flag is the starburst, isn't it?). So, yeah... this one is a glaring forgery since they're putting Leo (who is Baz's Alexander) in with Stone, when he isn't.

Hello there,I am the owner & designer of WWW.ADANGIO.COM and I was just wanting to clarify a few things that you raised. Firstly, thank you for visiting my site. But more importantly, you are correct in that the poster concepts are NOT official - they are just that - concepts. Originally when I designed the Alexander poster, there were potentially 2 developments - one by Oliver Stone and one by Baz Luhrmann. At the time there was no distinction as to which one DiCaprio was going to be participating in, so apologies to all Luhrmann / DiCaprio fans - this is an honest error. As for the credits, the emphasis on my site is on the designs - not the aesthetics of crediting. Credits for projects in development are likely to always change so I figured it would be way too time consuming to do individual credits for each poster, so I just use the same credits for most of my posters - ultimately, what I am wanting to showcase is the look & feel of the concepts, not the information below.Anyhow, I hope that clears things up. I also would prefer you don't use the word "forgery" because if you look through my site, you will note that I am a registered business with comprehensive information that the posters are conceptual artwork from my point of view to showcase my work. There is no forgery involved - I own the copyright (as per Australian & International Copyright Law) of the design of everything on the site.Thanks againSincerely,
Anthony D'Angio

Forgery was the wrong word. Conceptual art is the right term. Sorry about that.

Anthony,Apologies. Now that I have read you post I see that "forgery" was the wrong word to use.However, the term was used in good faith, as all we saw was the one picture, with no reference to the context of your site.I liked the poster, by the way!All the bestMarcus
